1 About Human Services Intervention Strategies
1.1 An Introduction to this Subject
This is an introductory subject which examines underlying theories of social welfare work, community work, youth work and international social development. Students will explore the ideological underpinnings of theories and discourses in the human services, particularly with regard to the impact of poverty, inequity and the experience of vulnerable populations. The contribution of other disciplines to knowledge and practice in these fields of practice will also be examined. This subject will focus on developing beginning assessment and intervention skills in working with individuals, groups, and communities. Students will also develop an understanding of ethical issues related to social work practise and working in human service organisations as a member of a team.
1.2 What is Expected of You
Study Load
A student is expected to study an hour per credit point a week. For example a 10 credit point subject would require
10 hours of study per week. This time includes the time spent within classes during lectures, tutorials or practicals.
Note for Summer Terms: As Summer subjects deliver the same content and classes over a shorter period of time, the subjects are run in a more intensive mode. Regardless of the delivery mode, the study hours for each subject in Summer will be around 30 hours.
Attendance
To ensure compliance with accreditation guidelines, students are expected to attend all classes. Attendance records are kept for sessions and students are required to attend a minimum of 80% of all tutorials/workshops. Where attendance is affected due to illness or misadventure an application for special consideration will need to be lodged. Failure to comply may result in a failure of the subject.

1.3 Changes to Subject as a Result of Past Student Feedback
The University values student feedback in order to improve the quality of its educational programs. The feedback provided helps us improve teaching methods and subjects of study. The survey subjects results inform subject content and design, Subject Outlines, teaching methods, assessment processes and teaching materials.
You are welcome to provide feedback that is related to the teaching of this subject. At the end of the semester you will be given the opportunity to complete a Student Feedback on Subject questionnaire to assess the subject. If requested by your subject coordinator, you may also have the opportunity to complete a Student Feedback on Teaching (SFT) questionnaire to provide feedback for individual teaching staff.
As a result of student feedback, the following changes and improvements to this Subject have recently been made:
– -The task for Assessment 2 has been changed from watching a video to engaging students in a practical advocacy project. This task will be the basis for writing Assessment 2, which is a report on group work.
